Well for my first post i would like to say im not a pro but will soon be. I have just started going through the direct X libraries for creating 3d worlds and how to manipulate the camera and lens and so on. I will be working out of the Introduction To 3D Game Programming WITH DIRECT 9.0c A Shader Approach. So to start with today im going to work off of Chapter 17 which is the chapter that has to do with terrain rendering. For all those who might be wondering I have already schimed through most of the book already and think the best way to learn it and get what i am doing is to simply start with the nitty gritty. After coding the Walking Terrain Demo I feel I have a little understanding of the writers approach to direct x and terrain here. So my goal for the rest of today will be to manipulate what has already been created to get my own feeling from this basic rendering engine. Hopefully as the days go on it may turn out to be something of my own.
